Firestone Country Club's South Course is a private club situated in Akron, Ohio, designed by Bert Way. It gained significant renown as the long-time annual host of the World Golf Championships-Bridgestone Invitational, attracting the game's top players for decades. Known for its demanding length, particularly the lengthy par-5 16th hole dubbed 'The Monster,' the course presents a formidable challenge. Its championship pedigree is rooted in consistently hosting high-profile professional tournaments.
I highly recommend staying in the villas! We got the first one by the parking lot overlooking 18th of the south course. Staff is super friendly and helpful. They say its less crowded on weekends, so keep that in mind when scheduling.
Our first time there (as a guest). We did some putting and had a great tour. The place is really something to brag about!
Really enjoyed attending this year's senior tournament. Picked a different group everyday and walked 18 holes with them. Eating in the air conditioned club house every day was also nice. Great course for watching a tournament. Parking lot nearby with a pass or
